FHIR Examples for Extensions

• Simple extensions - an extension that adds a single element to a resource/type.
• Complex extensions - extensions with sub-elements.
• Multi-source extensions - an extension that extends another extension.

FHIR Examples for Slicing

• Slicing by value (fixed) - built in elements
• Slicing by value (fixed) - extensions
• Slicing by type
• Slicing by profile

Implementer Guidance

• Merging Element Definitions
• Refines Rules - determining what element a profiled element "refines".
• Type Profiling

Proposed Functionality

• Profile Governed API - ReST with Profiles
• PATCH with Profiles - governing the modification of a resource using a profile
• Profiled FHIR - using a profile to promote slices to first-class elements on the wire
